Hi!

I try run command “corosync-keygen -l creates=/etc/corosync/authkey” and send this key to all of my servers but I stil have problem with it. Can You help me?  
Just it looks like that and doesnt work:

- name: Generate corosync key  
shell: corosync-keygen -l creates=/etc/corosync/authkey  
run\_once: true  
notify:

- restart\_corosync

- ha\_authkey\_warning

- name: Synchronizacja  
synchronize: src=etc/corosync/authkey dest=/etc/corosync/authkey  
delegate\_to: 192.168.10.186

- name: Generate corosync configuration  
template: src=corosync.conf.j2 dest=/etc/corosync/corosync.conf force={{ corosync.force\_update }}  
notify: restart\_corosync

It looks like you are missing a / in the src= part of your synchronize action, here:

- name: Synchronizacja  
synchronize: src=etc/corosync/authkey dest=/etc/corosync/authkey  
delegate\_to: 192.168.10.186

instead try

- name: Synchronizacja  
synchronize: src=/etc/corosync/authkey dest=/etc/corosync/authkey  
delegate\_to: 192.168.10.186

You might find it easier to use ‘yaml style’ module parameters like this

- name: Synchronizacja  
synchronize:  
src: /etc/corosync/authkey  
dest: /etc/corosync/authkey  
delegate\_to: 192.168.10.186

Personally I find this easier to read than the key=value key=value style.

Hope this helps,

Jon
